Like Aristotle once said, fear is pain arising from the anticipation of the loss of streaming movies from Netflix. It's a fear we've likely all experienced one time or another—and you might be panicking right now, considering the fact that a whole lot of movies (from Brick to Braveheart to Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo) are all expiring as of January 1st, 2014. You can see the full list of those films—compiled thanks to a Redditor and Vulture, no thanks to Netflix—below the jump.
But Aristotle also said that hope is a waking dream for those of us who still haven't gotten around to actually watching Waking Life the whole way through. Suffice to say, Netflix works in mysterious ways (which they don't want you to know too much about), so many of these films could pop back up in a few months, or days, after the expiration date.
Nevertheless, do you really want to take the chance of missing Troll 2 or Tales From The Crypt: Bordello Of Blood? As Aristotle put it, we are what we repeatedly do—excellence, then, is not an act, but the habit of re-watching Species over and over again.
